Divorce
Settle when you can. Be ready when you can’t.
Most divorces end in a negotiated agreement, and a good agreement depends on knowing exactly what is at stake. We gather the financial facts, explain your options in plain terms, and press for terms that protect your future. When the other side won’t be reasonable, we prepare your case for court.
- Marital settlement agreements
- Property, retirement and debt division
- Alimony, for those who may receive or pay it
- Parenting plans and custody schedules
- Court appointments representing children
- Parents’ defense in CINA cases
Children & Custody
Parenting plans built for real family life.
Custody decisions shape your children’s everyday routine. We help you build a plan that covers the school week, holidays, travel and decision-making, and we stand up for your time with your children in negotiation and in court. Lauri Moylan has also been appointed by the court to represent children, so she knows how judges look at these cases.
- Legal and physical custody
- Child support under the Maryland guidelines
- Modifications when circumstances change

High-Asset Divorce
When the finances are complex, details decide the outcome.

Client reviews
In our clients’ own words
Lauri did an amazing job handling our family’s custody case. She was very personable, knowledgeable and keeps her client’s best interest a top priority. Without Lauri’s help, and expertise we would still be in a very unhealthy custody situation. Thank you!!
A. NorrisResponsive, informative and professional. They give you information that is relevant and not necessarily based on your perceived outcome. I prefer honesty and integrity over shades over my eyes anytime. Lauri is easy to talk to and gives you real and positive feedback. Highly recommended.
Daphne G.Ms. Moylan is exceptional at what she does. She and her team brought extreme professionalism and compassion to a case that was in need of such expertise that anyone would certainly benefit from when in need of family law. Their understanding of the matter was seen from day one as they drove towards a solution that helped in more ways than one.
